Paul Scheffer and the Doomsday Prophets
Almost ten years ago, the Dutch author Paul Scheffer wrote an essay that proved to be a milestone. In The Multicultural Drama, Scheffer took on the multicultural orthodoxy that inspired Dutch immigration policy, and thereby introduced a nationwide debate about the multicultural society. Now Scheffer has written a new book, and in an interview with Weekendavisen he shares his current views on the Islamization of Europe and the people he calls (not admiringly) doomsday prophets. In this article, one of those prophets, Bruce Bawer, takes a critical look at Scheffers comments.
